The coin return unit 138 is provided with an opening 138a on the side surface so that an internal coin can be taken out by an operator.

  Next, specific control processing performed by the control unit 10 will be described.

  The control part 10 has the transaction processing part 101 which performs transaction processing (control processing of each part of the cash processing apparatus 1) according to an operator's operation.

  The transaction processing unit 101 starts a transaction with an operator in response to an operator operation on the operation display unit 14, and receives a cash deposit process (a process of accepting and storing cash in the banknote processing unit 12 or the coin processing unit 13), Cash withdrawal processing (processing for discharging cash stored in the banknote processing unit 12 and the coin processing unit 13) is performed.

  The transaction processing unit 101 requests an operator to input an ID or the like for identifying (authenticating) the operator, and identifies (authenticates) the operator who performs the transaction based on the input information. The method by which transaction processing unit 101 receives an input of ID from an operator is not limited. For example, the cash processing apparatus 1 may accept reading of a card possessed by the operator (a card in which an ID is recorded) using the card processing unit 16, or may receive an ID from the operator using the operation display unit 14. Operation input (manual input) may be accepted. As a result, the transaction processing unit 101 can identify and authenticate the operator during the transaction. As described above, in the cash processing apparatus 1, an identifier input unit that receives an input of an ID (an identifier related to an operator) is realized by the operation display unit 14 (touch panel display 141) or the card processing unit 16 (card reader 161). .

  The transaction processing unit 101 also controls the printing unit 15 to issue a transaction receipt on which the details of the executed transaction are printed.

  Further, the transaction processing unit 101 performs a process of recording (adding) the transaction content in the transaction history recording data 111 of the data storage unit 11 at the time of the transaction. The data structure of the transaction history record data 111 is not limited. For example, as shown in FIG. 4, transaction time, transaction type (type of transaction), ID (ID indicating an operator related to the transaction), and amount It is good also as a structure containing these items.

  Furthermore, the transaction processing unit 101 performs a deposit transaction in which, when the cash that the operator has forgotten remains in the apparatus after the transaction ends, the remaining cash is taken in and stored (stored). And

  In the example of this embodiment, the transaction processing unit 101, when coins remain in the coin insertion unit 131 of the coin processing unit 13 after the deposit transaction ends (when the coin is detected by the sensor 131b), Is stored in (stored in the coin storage unit 135), and a deposit transaction of the coin is executed. At this time, the transaction processing unit 101 creates a temporary ID (hereinafter referred to as “temporary ID”) based on the ID used in the deposit transaction performed immediately before, and uses the temporary ID to remain. Execute the deposit transaction of the coins you had.

  In this embodiment, the transaction processing unit 101 has a symbol (character) indicating a temporary ID at the beginning or end of an ID (hereinafter also referred to as “normal ID”) used in a deposit transaction performed immediately before. As a temporary ID, an ID with “Z” added thereto is created. For example, when the normal ID used in the deposit transaction performed immediately before is “222222”, the transaction processing unit 101 adds “Z” to the head of the normal ID and temporarily adds “Z222222”. Create as ID. The symbol indicating the temporary ID needs to be not used in the normal ID. The symbol indicating the temporary ID may be a plurality of digits.

  Further, the transaction processing unit 101 may create a temporary ID by replacing some digits of the normal ID with a symbol indicating that it is a temporary ID. For example, in the transaction processing unit 101, when the number of digits applicable as the ID (normal ID and temporary ID) is 8 digits, and 8 digits are already applied as the normal ID, the temporary ID is further used as described above. Since it is not possible to add a symbol indicating that it is present, the temporary ID may be created by replacing a part of the normal ID with a symbol indicating that it is a temporary ID. For example, when the normal ID used in the deposit transaction performed immediately before is “02222222”, the transaction processing unit 101 replaces the head of the normal ID with “Z” and replaces “Z2222222” with the temporary ID. You may make it produce as.

(A-2) Operation | movement of 1st Embodiment Next, operation | movement of the cash processing apparatus 1 of 1st Embodiment which has the above structures is demonstrated.

  FIG. 5 and FIG. 6 are flowcharts showing the operation when a deposit transaction is performed in the cash processing apparatus 1 according to the first embodiment.

  First, it is assumed that a deposit transaction is selected (for example, selected from a transaction selection menu screen) by an operation input to the operation display unit 14 by the operator. Then, the cash processing apparatus 1 accepts an ID input from an operator (card reading using the card processing unit 16 or ID input by receiving an input using the operation display unit 14). And in the cash processing apparatus 1, cash (banknote / coin) shall be thrown in by the operator (S101). At this time, the coin is inserted into the coin insertion unit 131 of the coin processing unit 13. At this time, the bill is inserted into the bill deposit / withdrawal port 121 of the bill processing unit 12.

  Next, the transaction processing unit 101 confirms whether the ID used in this deposit transaction is a temporary ID (an ID with “Z” added to the head) or a normal ID (S102). When the ID used in this deposit transaction is a temporary ID (ID with “Z” added at the beginning), the transaction processing unit 101 operates from step S114 described later, and the ID used in this deposit transaction is In the case of a normal ID, the operation starts from step S103 described later.

  When the ID used for the current deposit transaction is a normal ID, the transaction processing unit 101 controls the banknote processing unit 12 and the coin storage unit 135 to determine and count the inserted cash (banknote / coin). Let Then, after the cash counting process, the transaction processing unit 101 causes the operation display unit 14 to display the counting result (for example, the number and total amount of the counted cash denominations) (S103). Confirmation is accepted (S104). For example, the transaction processing unit 101 may accept confirmation of the counting result (payment amount) or cancellation of the transaction by pressing a predetermined key (soft key) displayed on the operation display unit 14. The transaction processing unit 101 operates from step S105 described later when the confirmation of the counting result (payment amount) is accepted in step S104, and operates from step S109 described later when the transaction stop is received.

  When the transaction cancellation is accepted in step S104 described above, the transaction processing unit 101 returns the inserted cash (banknotes / coins) to the operator (S109) and ends the current transaction process. At this time, the banknote processing unit 12 discharges the inserted banknotes to the banknote deposit / withdrawal port 121. Moreover, the coin processing unit 13 discharges the inserted coins to the coin return unit 138.

  On the other hand, when the confirmation of the counting result (payment amount) is received in the above-described step S104, the transaction processing unit 101 controls the banknote processing unit 12 and the coin processing unit 13 to store the counted cash ( S105).

  Next, the transaction processing unit 101 performs various data processing (payment storage processing) associated with the current deposit transaction (S106). The transaction processing unit 101 executes, for example, an addition process of various counters (for example, a counter value with a high value for each denomination), an additional update process of the transaction history record data 111, and the like.

  Next, the transaction processing unit 101 controls the printing unit 15 to discharge the receipt on which the transaction result is printed (S107).

  Next, the transaction processing unit 101 confirms whether or not coins remain in the coin insertion unit 131 (S108). Specifically, transaction processing unit 101 confirms whether or not coins remain based on the detection result of sensor 131b inside coin input unit 131.

  When it is confirmed that coins remain in the coin insertion unit 131, the transaction processing unit 101 operates from step S110 described later, and when it is confirmed that no coins remain in the coin insertion unit 131. Ends the current transaction process.

  When it is confirmed that coins remain in the coin insertion unit 131, the transaction processing unit 101 performs output processing for guiding the removal of the remaining coins (S110). For example, the transaction processing unit 101 controls the operation display unit 14 to display and output a residual coin take-out guidance screen that guides the removal of the remaining coins, as shown in FIG. 7, and waits for a certain time (S111). ).

  In the residual coin take-out guidance screen shown in FIG. 7, a message for guiding the removal of the remaining coins (in FIG. 7, a message “Please take out because there are coins remaining in the coin insertion part”) is arranged. Yes.

  Next, the transaction processing unit 101 confirms again whether or not coins remain in the coin insertion unit 131 (S112). If it is determined that no coins remain in the coin insertion unit 131, the transaction processing unit 101 When it is determined that the coins that have been taken out have been taken out and the transaction is terminated, and it is confirmed that coins remain in the coin insertion unit 131, the operation starts from step S113 described later.

  When it is confirmed in step S112 described above that coins remain in the coin insertion unit 131, the transaction processing unit 101 creates a temporary ID (S113), returns to the above-described step S102, and operates. Will be transferred to the deposit process using. At this time, the transaction processing unit 101 creates a temporary ID by adding “Z” indicating the temporary ID to the head of the ID received in step S101.

  When it is confirmed in the above-described step S102 that the ID used for the current deposit transaction is a temporary ID, the transaction processing unit 101 controls the coin processing unit 13 so that the coins remaining in the coin input unit 131 are stored. And counting and storing in the coin storage unit 135 (S114).

  Next, the transaction processing unit 101 performs various data processing (payment storage processing) associated with the current deposit transaction (S115). At this time, the transaction processing unit 101 performs an additional update process of the transaction history record data 111 using the temporary ID (ID with “Z” added to the head) created in step S113 described above.

  As described above, when the ID used for the deposit transaction is a temporary ID, it can be determined that the operator is absent. Therefore, the cash processing apparatus 1 (transaction processing unit 101) can display the counting result or perform a transaction receipt. The printing process is omitted and the deposit transaction proceeds.

  FIG. 4 shows an example of the transaction history record data 111 after the deposit process using the temporary ID is performed on the remaining coins by the processes of steps S110 to S115.

  In FIG. 4, immediately after the deposit transaction using the normal ID “222222”, the data of the deposit transaction using the temporary ID “Z222222” (the temporary ID based on the previous normal ID “222222”) is added. Show.

(A-3) Effects of First Embodiment According to the first embodiment, the following effects can be achieved.

  In the cash processing apparatus 1 according to the first embodiment, the coins remaining in the coin insertion unit 131 after the end of the transaction are taken into the apparatus as a deposit process by a temporary ID operator (operator), thereby releasing the residue. , You can move on to the next operator transaction. Thereby, in the cash processing apparatus 1 of 1st Embodiment, even if a coin remains in the coin insertion part 131 after completion | finish of transaction, the operator who performs the next transaction does not notice presence of the remaining coin, Troubles such as inserting coins for the next deposit transaction can be suppressed.

  Moreover, in the cash processing apparatus 1 of 1st Embodiment, since the remaining coin can be handled as deposited cash, even if it is the remaining coin, it is recycled (refluxed) to the withdrawal processing. Therefore, it is possible to prevent so-called “dead money”.

  Furthermore, in the cash processing apparatus 1 of 1st Embodiment, temporary ID is produced based on ID input from the operator, and the transaction history (for example, transaction history recording data 111) using the temporary ID is recorded. Therefore, since the operator who left the coin can be specified based on the transaction history (transaction history record data 111), it is possible to easily perform a refund process or the like.

  Moreover, in the cash processing apparatus 1 of 1st Embodiment, it becomes possible to manage separately the cash received with temporary ID from the cash received with normal ID. For example, in the cash processing apparatus 1 (transaction processing unit 101), the cash deposited with the temporary ID is classified as cash that is not included in the target of the collection process (the process of withdrawing the cash in the apparatus as cash for collection). Then, the cash deposited with the temporary ID is left in the apparatus without being collected. Thereby, when using the cash processing apparatus 1 of 1st Embodiment, an administrator refunds an operator with cash which was deposited with temporary ID (remaining cash) at any time with easy processing. Is possible. For example, when the cash deposited with the temporary ID (remaining cash) has been collected by the collection process, the manager of the cash processing apparatus 1 has been collected and transported to another place, for example. It was necessary to perform complicated paperwork of returning the cash deposited with the temporary ID from the cash (remaining cash).

(B) 2nd Embodiment Hereinafter, 2nd Embodiment of the cash processing apparatus by this invention is described in full detail, referring drawings.

(B-1) Structure of 2nd Embodiment The structure of the cash processing apparatus 1 of 2nd Embodiment can also be shown using FIGS. 1-4 similarly to 1st Embodiment.

  In the cash processing apparatus 1 of the second embodiment, part of the processing of the transaction processing unit 101 is different.

  The transaction processing unit 101 of the second embodiment is configured to output (discharge) a transaction receipt when performing a deposit transaction using a temporary ID for the remaining cash (coin), in the first embodiment. Is different.

(B-2) Operation | movement of 2nd Embodiment Next, operation | movement of the cash processing apparatus 1 of 2nd Embodiment which has the above structures is demonstrated.

  Operation | movement of the cash processing apparatus 1 of 2nd Embodiment can be shown using FIG. 8, FIG. In cash processing device 1 of a 2nd embodiment, since operation of Steps S110-S113 is the same as that of a 1st embodiment, operation of Steps S110-S113 is shown using Drawing 6 also in a 2nd embodiment. be able to. In FIG. 8, the same reference numerals (step numbers) are given to the steps of the same operation as in FIG.

  In cash processing device 1 of a 1st embodiment, when performing money_receiving | payment transaction using temporary ID about the cash (coin) which remained, the output (discharge | emission) of the transaction receipt was not performed. On the other hand, in 2nd Embodiment, when performing deposit transaction using temporary ID about the cash (coin) which remained as mentioned above, the point which performs output (discharge) of a transaction receipt is 1st. It is different from the embodiment.

  The flowchart shown in FIG. 8 is different from the first embodiment in that the process of step S201 is added after step S115.

  In step S201, the transaction processing unit 101 controls the printing unit 15 to discharge a transaction receipt on which a transaction result is printed.

  FIG. 9 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of the printed contents of a transaction receipt (transaction receipt issued in step S201) issued when performing a deposit transaction using a temporary ID for the remaining cash (coins). is there.

  In the transaction receipt shown in FIG. 9, the temporary receipt (ID with “Z” added at the beginning) “Z222222” is described as the ID. Therefore, the transaction receipt when the remaining cash (coin) is deposited. It can be confirmed.

(B-3) Effects of Second Embodiment According to the second embodiment, the following effects can be achieved.

  In the cash processing apparatus 1 of the second embodiment, when depositing the remaining coins by deposit transaction, the transaction receipt is printed, and then the process ends. Thereby, in the cash processing apparatus 1 of 2nd Embodiment, since the surrounding person can see the printed receipt, it has shown to the surrounding person that he took in the remaining money without operating the apparatus. Can be recognized. In the second embodiment, the device administrator recognizes the existence of a receipt that cannot be received (a transaction receipt associated with a deposit transaction of the remaining coin), thereby receiving the deposit of the remaining coin (receipt). )) Can occur.

  Furthermore, since the cash processing apparatus 1 of 2nd Embodiment will also describe ID (temporary ID) accompanying a deposit transaction in the transaction receipt accompanying the deposit transaction of the coin which remained, the content itself of a transaction receipt itself However, the device manager can know that the deposit (intake) of the remaining coins has occurred.

(C) Other Embodiments The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and may include modified embodiments as exemplified below.

  (C-1) In 2nd Embodiment, when the cash processing apparatus 1 (transaction processing part 101) performed the deposit transaction of the coin which remained, it showed about the example which prints a transaction receipt, but transaction receipt It is also possible to report (output) the fact that cash (coin) remains by using means other than printing. For example, the cash processing apparatus 1 (transaction processing unit 101) may report (output) that cash residue has occurred using means such as voice output or lamp lighting. Further, for example, the cash processing apparatus 1 (transaction processing unit 101) is connected to a remote place (for example, a management center of the cash processing apparatus 1) via a communication line (for example, various communication lines such as a LAN or a public telephone). Information including the temporary ID may be notified (for example, notification is made by e-mail, a message in a predetermined format, etc.).

  (C-2) In each of the embodiments described above, the cash processing apparatus 1 determines that when there is a coin remaining in the coin insertion unit 131 of the coin processing unit 13 after the deposit transaction ends, the remaining coin The cash processing apparatus 1 uses the temporary ID to make a deposit transaction, but the cash processing apparatus 1 has a coin remaining in the coin dispensing unit 136 after the transaction ends (for example, a coin is deposited in the coin dispensing unit 136).
